    Probably not, but who knows? One way to go about it is to talk to professionals who already do it, find out the techniques, materials, equipment etc. and then practice on some old wheels. If you are happy that the results are of a sufficiently professional standard and can be achieved in such a way and at such a cost as to make a profit/living from it, then the best of luck. I'm in the process of doing a simple DIY refurb on some wheels at the moment. Its a relatively short term fix, but a whole lot cheaper than whats being asked by the pros. I have pics of the work in process which I will post shortly. Best of luck with it.

    I answered a similar question a few pages up, inder the heading "Flaky Alloy Paint" and posted some pics there. Not 100% but a vast improvement just the same. May take the Nitromors route for the rest of them, as the one I did was just a spare, "guinea pig" !!
